26 Add new installed header with VAAPI-specific hwcontext definitions.
28 2016-xx-xx - xxxxxxx - lavu 55.21.0 - hwcontext.h
29 Add AVHWFramesConstraints and associated API.
31 2016-04-11 - xxxxxxx - lavf 57.33.0 - avformat.h
32 Add AVStream.codecpar, deprecate AVStream.codec.
34 2016-04-02 - xxxxxxx - lavu 55.20.100 - base64.h
35 Add AV_BASE64_DECODE_SIZE(x) macro.
37 2016-xx-xx - lavc 57.33.0 - avcodec.h
38 xxxxxxx - Add AVCodecParameters and its related API.
39 xxxxxxx - Add av_get_audio_frame_duration2().
41 2016-03-11 - xxxxxxx - lavf/lavc 57.28.101
42 Add requirement to bitstream filtering API that returned packets with
43 size == 0 and side_data_elems == 0 are to be skipped by the caller.
45 2016-XX-XX - xxxxxxx - lavf 57.28.100
46 Add protocol blacklisting API
48 2016-02-28 - xxxxxxx - lavc 57.27.101
49 Validate AVFrame returned by get_buffer2 to have required
50 planes not NULL and unused planes set to NULL as crashes
51 and buffer overflow are possible with certain streams if
54 2016-xx-xx - xxxxxxx - lavc 57.27.100 - avcodec.h
55 "flags2" decoding option now allows the flag "ass_ro_flush_noop" preventing
56 the reset of the ASS ReadOrder field on flush. This affects the content of
57 AVSubtitles.rects[N]->ass when "sub_text_format" is set to "ass" (see
60 2016-xx-xx - xxxxxxx - lavc 57.26.100 - avcodec.h
61 Add a "sub_text_format" subtitles decoding option allowing the values "ass"
62 (recommended) and "ass_with_timings" (not recommended, deprecated, default).
63 The default value for this option will change to "ass" at the next major
64 libavcodec version bump.
66 The current default is "ass_with_timings" for compatibility. This means that
67 all subtitles text decoders currently still output ASS with timings printed
68 as strings in the AVSubtitles.rects[N]->ass fields.
70 Setting "sub_text_format" to "ass" allows a better timing accuracy (ASS
71 timing is limited to a 1/100 time base, so this is relevant for any subtitles
72 format needing a bigger one), ease timing adjustments, and prevents the need
73 of removing the timing from the decoded string yourself. This form is also
74 known as "the Matroska form". The timing information (start time, duration)
75 can be found in the AVSubtitles fields.
77 2016-xx-xx - lavc 57.25.0 - avcodec.h
78 Add AVCodecContext.hw_frames_ctx.
80 2016-xx-xx - lavfi 6.36.0 - avfilter.h
81 xxxxxxx avfilter.h - Add AVFilterLink.hw_frames_ctx.
82 xxxxxxx buffersrc.h - Add AVBufferSrcParameters and functions for handling it.
84 2016-02-xx - xxxxxxx - lavc 57.25.100
85 Add AV_PKT_DATA_MPEGTS_STREAM_ID for exporting the MPEGTS stream ID.
87 2016-xx-xx - lavu 55.18.100
88 xxxxxxx audio_fifo.h - Add av_audio_fifo_peek_at().
90 2016-xx-xx - lavu 55.18.0
91 xxxxxxx buffer.h - Add av_buffer_pool_init2().
92 xxxxxxx hwcontext.h - Add a new installed header hwcontext.h with a new API

95 CUDA-specific hwcontext definitions.
96 xxxxxxx hwcontext_vdpau.h - Add a new installed header hwcontext_vdpau.h with
97 VDPAU-specific hwcontext definitions.

1161 reget_buffer(), avcodec_default_get_buffer(),
1162 avcodec_default_reget_buffer(), avcodec_default_release_buffer().
1163 Remove avcodec_default_free_buffers(), which should not have ever
1164 been called from outside of lavc.
1165 Deprecate the following AVFrame fields:
1166 * base -- is now stored in AVBufferRef
1167 * reference, type, buffer_hints -- are unnecessary in the new API
1168 * hwaccel_picture_private, owner, thread_opaque -- should not
1169 have been acessed from outside of lavc
1170 * qscale_table, qstride, qscale_type, mbskip_table, motion_val,

1329 For audio formats with fixed frame size, the last frame
1330 no longer needs to be padded with silence, libavcodec
1331 will handle this internally (effectively all encoders

2480 2009-11-25 - 86a60fa - lavfi 1.9.0 - avfilter_register()
2481 Change the signature of avfilter_register() to make it return an
2482 int. This is required since now the registration operation may fail.
2484 2009-11-25 - 74a0059 - lavu 50.5.0 - pixdesc.h API
2485 Make the pixdesc.h API public.

2509 2009-06-19 - a4276ba - lavc 52.32.0 - AVSubtitle.pts
2510 Add a pts field to AVSubtitle which gives the subtitle packet pts
2511 in AV_TIME_BASE. Some subtitle de-/encoders (e.g. XSUB) will
2512 not work right without this.
2514 2009-06-03 - 8f3f2e0 - lavc 52.30.2 - AV_PKT_FLAG_KEY
2515 PKT_FLAG_KEY has been deprecated and will be dropped at the next
2516 major version. Use AV_PKT_FLAG_KEY instead.
2518 2009-06-01 - f988ce6 - lavc 52.30.0 - av_lockmgr_register()
2519 av_lockmgr_register() can be used to register a callback function
2520 that lavc (and in the future, libraries that depend on lavc) can use
2521 to implement mutexes. The application should provide a callback function
2522 that implements the AV_LOCK_* operations described in avcodec.h.
2523 When the lock manager is registered, FFmpeg is guaranteed to behave
2524 correctly in a multi-threaded application.
2526 2009-04-30 - ce1d9c8 - lavc 52.28.0 - av_free_packet()
2527 av_free_packet() is no longer an inline function. It is now exported.
2529 2009-04-11 - 80d403f - lavc 52.25.0 - deprecate av_destruct_packet_nofree()
2530 Please use NULL instead. This has been supported since r16506
2531 (lavf > 52.23.1, lavc > 52.10.0).
2533 2009-04-07 - 7a00bba - lavc 52.23.0 - avcodec_decode_video/audio/subtitle
2534 The old decoding functions are deprecated, all new code should use the
2535 new functions avcodec_decode_video2(), avcodec_decode_audio3() and
2536 avcodec_decode_subtitle2(). These new functions take an AVPacket *pkt
2537 argument instead of a const uint8_t *buf / int buf_size pair.
2539 2009-04-03 - 7b09db3 - lavu 50.3.0 - av_fifo_space()
2540 Introduce the av_fifo_space() function.
2542 2009-04-02 - fabd246 - lavc 52.23.0 - AVPacket
2543 Move AVPacket declaration from libavformat/avformat.h to
2544 libavcodec/avcodec.h.
2546 2009-03-22 - 6e08ca9 - lavu 50.2.0 - RGB32 pixel formats
2547 Convert the pixel formats PIX_FMT_ARGB, PIX_FMT_RGBA, PIX_FMT_ABGR,
2548 PIX_FMT_BGRA, which were defined as macros, into enum PixelFormat values.
2549 Conversely PIX_FMT_RGB32, PIX_FMT_RGB32_1, PIX_FMT_BGR32 and
2550 PIX_FMT_BGR32_1 are now macros.
2551 avcodec_get_pix_fmt() now recognizes the "rgb32" and "bgr32" aliases.
2552 Re-sort the enum PixelFormat list accordingly.
2553 This change breaks API/ABI backward compatibility.
2555 2009-03-22 - f82674e - lavu 50.1.0 - PIX_FMT_RGB5X5 endian variants
2556 Add the enum PixelFormat values:
2557 PIX_FMT_RGB565BE, PIX_FMT_RGB565LE, PIX_FMT_RGB555BE, PIX_FMT_RGB555LE,
2558 PIX_FMT_BGR565BE, PIX_FMT_BGR565LE, PIX_FMT_BGR555BE, PIX_FMT_BGR555LE.
2560 2009-03-21 - ee6624e - lavu 50.0.0 - av_random*
2561 The Mersenne Twister PRNG implemented through the av_random* functions
2562 was removed. Use the lagged Fibonacci PRNG through the av_lfg* functions
2565 2009-03-08 - 41dd680 - lavu 50.0.0 - AVFifoBuffer
2566 av_fifo_init, av_fifo_read, av_fifo_write and av_fifo_realloc were dropped
2567 and replaced by av_fifo_alloc, av_fifo_generic_read, av_fifo_generic_write
2568 and av_fifo_realloc2.
2569 In addition, the order of the function arguments of av_fifo_generic_read
2570 was changed to match av_fifo_generic_write.
2571 The AVFifoBuffer/struct AVFifoBuffer may only be used in an opaque way by
2572 applications, they may not use sizeof() or directly access members.
2574 2009-03-01 - ec26457 - lavf 52.31.0 - Generic metadata API
2575 Introduce a new metadata API (see av_metadata_get() and friends).
2576 The old API is now deprecated and should not be used anymore. This especially
2577 includes the following structure fields:
2578 - AVFormatContext.title
2579 - AVFormatContext.author
2580 - AVFormatContext.copyright
2581 - AVFormatContext.comment
2582 - AVFormatContext.album
2583 - AVFormatContext.year
2584 - AVFormatContext.track
2585 - AVFormatContext.genre
2588 - AVProgram.provider_name
